Unrequited Love and Bold Aspirations
Hal
While my sister Natalie worried about the fate of an entire season, I had my mind on more important things. Her name was Claire Bonner. Was I obsessed? Let's just say I know the exact number of times she blinks per minute. Interesting. You see, that particular dive was telling me that she's looking for a new love in her life. You know, someone bold, fresh, sexy.
[narrating; sees Claire Bonner on the diving board; Claire dives into the pool; spken]
Lane
Hal, Claire Bonner wouldn't spit on you if your hair was on fire. To people like her, people like you are invisible.
Hal
All right, so you guys think I'm invisible? Then, I guess she won't see me when I do this. All right. So, I'm invisible, but the day will come when Claire Bonner will finally see just what she's been missing. Yeah, she saw what she was missing: Me, Hal Brandston, Mr. Smooth. My original idea was to stay underwater until I died. But, luckily the deep end had other plans for me. It was destiny.
[waves at Claire, but she doesn't notice; slips on water-covered tiles, yells, and falls in the pool as the movie freeze-frames; narrating; movie resumes, and Lane and Bill laugh as Hal sinks to the bottom of the pool and Claire notices; notices Claire's anklet with whale charm, and picks it up]
Bill
Dude, just go over there, and give her the bracelet. I mean, this is your big chance.
Hal
Don't you think I know that already? I'm just waiting for the right moment.
Chuck
Hey, babe. Hop in, everyone's waiting for us at the diner.
[arrives in his car]
Claire
Go away.
[not interested]
Chuck
Claire bear, what is goin on here? You don't return my calls. You won't talk to me.
Claire
I told you, I needed some time to think.
Chuck
What's there to think about? You're Claire Bonner and I'm Chuck Wheeler. America's dream team.

But...you know, when you're making a snow angel, and you wanna make it perfect, but you can't because there's always that handprint you make when you climb out...But with Hal, there's no handprint.

The Science of Snow and Water Formation
Hal
This is where it begins. Two atoms of hydrogen bond with a single atom of oxygen to form H2O, otherwise known as water. Then if all goes well, the temperature drops below freezing, the water crystalizes and a pretty brilliant thing happens.

The Imperfection of Snow Angels
Lane
You know, the problem with making snow angels, is you can never make an absolutely perfect one. I mean there's always gonna be that handprint you make when you climb out.
[while making a snow angel]

Come here. Not always.
[helps her up, leaving the snow angel unblemished]
Lane
It's perfect.

Sure is.

The Magic of a Snow Day
Hal
If you ask me, the miracle isn't how each snowflake is perfectly formed. The real winter miracle is what can happen afterward. It's called a Snow Day. Its a day kids live for. Schools close, roads disappear, grown men weep. My sister Natalie says anything can happen on a Snow Day. This is the story of one of those days. The day that changed the lives of me and my family forever.
